Friday – Reach McLeodGanj (It’s a 12-hour bus journey). Take rest and enjoy McLeodGanj, stay at a hotel in McLeod or Bhagsu.

Saturday – Start your trek in the morning. It will take you 5 to 6 hours to climb up and by the time you’re there, you’ll be cursing under your breath (But it’ll be worth it). Enjoy the evening atop the hill on Saturday. Experience the magical night sky (It is advisable to check the Lunar Calendar and visit near Full moon or no-moon night).

Sunday – Rise up early to see the enchanting sunrise and experience the true morning freshness. Have a quick breakfast and start your walk down (Which will be an easy 3 hour downhill trek)

Sunday evening – Take the Himachal Pradesh TOurism (overnight) Bus back to Delhi

Monday morning – Reach Maharana Pratap ISBT. Cry and crib about the trip getting over, and go back to the life you didn’t miss.
